The ALFF differences between the radiology interns group (n = 22) and the normal control group (n = 22) (p < 0.05, alphasim corrected, RIG v.s. NECG) and voxel-wise correlation map between ALFF and the level of perceptual expertise in the domain of radiological images as assessed by the AUC of Radiological Expertise Task for the inter RIG group. A The intern radiologists group showed higher ALFF in the left OFC (displayed in sagittal view); B The intern radiologists group showed higher ALFF in the right fusiform gyrus (displayed in axial view); C Significant correlation between ALFF and visual recognition expertise was found the in the right fusiform gyrus (p < 0.05, multiple comparison corrected); D The scatter plot map computed as ALFF of the peak voxel (40, 56, − 16) in the correlation analysis and RET scores. Please note that this map is only for illustration purpose, otherwise there would be the risk of a circular analysis. OFC the orbitofrontal cortex, FG the fusiform gyrus
